All-You-Can-Eat Soup Diet Basic Recipe

Aug 28, 2007

Our recipe for the Basic Soup yields such a large quantity -- to make sure you have enough to enjoy all week -- that it calls for a 12-quart stockpot for preparation. If you don't have one, not to worry -- the ingredients divide easily in half and the soup can be prepared in 2 large saucepans or Dutch ovens, depending on what you have in your kitchen cabinet.

Add tomatoes with their liquid, breaking up tomatoes with side of spoon. Add cabbage, green beans, broth, water, salt, and pepper; heat to boiling over high heat, stirring occasionally.

Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Increase heat to high; stir in zucchini and spinach and heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 10 minutes or until all vegetables are tender.
